Team Skirmish

Why does Team Skirmish have slayer as part of it? The point of it is to be an objective playlist. I’ve played 5 games in a row, and they’ve all being slayer. If i wanted to play slayer, I’d play slayer.

I think the playlist is alright, some of the map dont run well with certain gametypes but then again it is a social playlist.

I’m not so sure the point of Team Skirmish was to be an “objective playlist” as much as it was to be a social alternative to Team Arena.

I think they want it to be a social alternative to Team Arena, but I know that I for one want it to be an objective playlist with KotH in it and not slayer. I personally dislike slayer I would much rather play something that has something more than just killing each other.

Half of the gamemodes that are in team objective (one flag, one bomb, team Oddball, Team crazy king and VIP) are all not in Team skirmish. It’s really just a social version of Team Arena

It is supposed to be social so you don’t have to worry about your CSR. Ranked arena has slayer in it also.

Team Arena has that same problem of having slayer in it, why have slayer as a separate playlist and then also include it in arena, especially with slayer appearing for 60-80% of the games.

Because it’s suppose to replicate HCS.

There should be an objective playlist made that doesn’t have slayer in it.

I don’t like that slayer is in skirmish. They should either remove slayer from skirmish or add team objective.

They need to just add team objective, or change the name of skirmish to arena as its not skirmish. Another disappointing offering from Halo.

So edgy. Stop hating and be happy they gave us social.

The point of the forum is to discuss what you like and don’t like. I’ve put countless hours into this game, I’d just like for them to do something right and allow people to play objective only games, which they haven’t added to this game, and was always a part of the other halos. And they didn’t “give” us social, they added 2 playlists and separated the rest of them, lazy.

26.10:55:01 of multiplayer time. It can be counted

Sooooo…Social Skirmish, Shotty Snipes, Super Fiesta, Triple Team, Action Sack, Infection, and BTB are not all social?

They have specific commendations as well for each playlist, but make it extremely hard to complete the objective ones, due to the game types rarely showing up.

Be grateful that a developer has included a social matchmaking system? Surely this is standard?

I don’t really get the point of a social playlist the matches are more unbalanced than ranked.

Ive seen some maps that never appeared in rotation as well. But I do agree the whole point was to have an objective playlist.

Yahtzee! Yeah, Team Skirmish was meant to be a social playlist alternative to ranked arena playlists.

Social Skirmish is meant to be the social counterpart to Team Arena.

It’s a phrase for putting in a lot of hours, your poor humour is disappointing.

Super Fiesta was already there came and went, nothing new.
Action Sack was already permanent, they just added a few new game types, made by the community, because they’re too lazy to do it themselves.
Infection has been there for months.
BTB has been there since like the second update.
Grifball has been there since like April as well.
Social Skirmish is actually Social Arena, just separated it into ranked and non-ranked.
And Shotty Snipes was a playlist there in the first couple weekends that the game came out, they finally made it permanent after about 12 months of people saying it should be there. The same can be said for ranked Team Snipers.
And Triple Team is another one of their weekly/weekend playlists that they just made permanent.

There’s a lack of effort gone into what they’ve actually produced, except for the new vehicles and weapons.

It’s funny that I make a joke and I get accused of having poor humor.

Making the weekend playlists permanent is adding them in. If they were only there for a few days and then they are made permanent, then they are giving us social playlists.
